As for tranny, I still have no idea what his problem with Nintendo is. He's turning into Vlado the way he constantly takes jabs at the company.

Do you not know how to read or something? tranny has been a fan of theirs since the 80s, and the Nintendo Power Hour thing isn't a jab; it was a widely used phrase back then.

And what's even better is that Zelda's day vote is pretty damn beastly and Aeris's is all together unimpressive. Zelda with an already comfortable lead at the first five minutes along with that is just awesome.

Everybody with a score of 16 or less got the match wrong.
Overall prediction percentage: 61.21%

The top scores do well. The -1s go perfect, the -2s choke a bit and fail to break 90, but the -3s and -4s manage it. The -6s also do unusually well and break 90.

Four people fell off the Top 50 today. Mastrofallgamin, FarmerBrown634, DpObliVion and Eleventy110 all were two off perfect and all failed to have Tifa winning the match today.

And I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the only cameo characters that boosted from KH2 Auron and the X-2 chicks. I can't see a cameo in the second game helping if you were already in the first.

This is fun. I'm not even a big Zelda fan either. Although this is really making me rethink on my stance of Tifa > Zelda > Aeris. I really don't see why Zelda is this popular. Sure she has the name... but come on...

From Lady Ashe
Who would win each match in this Hypothetical Elite Eight/Tournament of Champions for next year?

We are assuming that Mega Man is the new character in SSBB, Twilight Princess has a huge increase in story/character development from the previous games, Chrono Trigger is out on VC, and Super Mario Galaxy/MP3 are out.

Zelda vs. Vincent.

Mega Man vs. Sonic.

Ganondorf vs. Samus.

Snake vs. Bowser.

ToC

Link vs. Nobody.

Crono vs. Sephiroth.

Mario vs. Main Bracket Winner.

Cloud vs. Nobody.


Still waiting. :x

GameFAQs today seems alot more open minded and less biased than it did 4 years ago. I mean, I like FF7 as much as the next guy, but it's a bit annoying when that game is overpraised to hell.
